Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers who think that people own it.

-- John Lennon

My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.

-- John Lennon

-- John Lennon

There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
